Some of the key players of Food Stabilizers Industry:
Cargill, Advanced Food Systems, DuPont, Archer Daniels Midland, Associated British Foods, Ashland, Tate & Lyle, Royal DSM, Glanbia Nutritionals, Palsgaard, Kerry, Chemelco International, NexiraTo regulate these additives and inform consumers, each additive is assigned a unique number called an “E number”, which is used in Europe for all approved additives. This numbering system has now been adopted and extended by the Codex Alimentarius Commission to internationally identify all additives, whether approved or not.
E numbers are all preceded by an "E", but countries outside of Europe only use the number whether the additive is approved in Europe or not. For example, acetic acid is written E260 on products sold in Europe, but is simply known as additive 260 in some countries. The additive 103, alkannin, is not approved for use in Europe and therefore does not have an E number, although it is approved for use in Australia and New Zealand. Since 1987 Australia has had an approved labeling system for additives in packaged foods. Each food additive must be named or numbered. The numbers are the same as in Europe, but without the prefix "E".
